Can't access RWK-related sites from Internet Explorer

Default Can't access RWK-related sites from Internet Explorer

I'm not sure why but I am unable to access RWK-related pages other than the main Race War Kingdoms Free Online RPG - No Downloads Required and rwk2.racewarkingdoms.com pages.

For example, I cannot access the announcements via /ann or the forums. I must use FireFox and manually navigate to the websites.

In IE, I do not receive errors, the pages simply do not load and stay blank forever, appearing to try to retrieve the page because the animated circle on the IE tab continues to animate but never actually loading.



Actually, because I just realized that I cannot see /p of other users, it seems that whenever a link is launched from the RWK page, it refuses to load.

What's the deal?

IE or some windows based thing has probably decided that rwk is an 'unsafe' site, and is trying to block it.. well, those particular sub sites obviously, seeing as you can get the the main page. As for the /p, there's probably some form of pop-up blocker in action.

Adware and IE addons can cause problems with the frame based functionality of RWK. However, being unable to even access the announcements pages which doesnt use this functionality makes it seem to have to be something else. Perhaps a bad cache, clear all your temp files and history and try again.

Nope, the /p popup creates a new window just fine, the website just refuses to load.

I've tried to clear my temporary files and history, no go It appears that any website launched from the RWK page in a new window simply refuses to load.

I had a problem like this a few years ago but not with RWK, i corrected it by using Firefox and redownloading IE, if this doesnt work let me know i have a few friends who probably could find a solution
